Róisín Murphy: Murphy’s Law – újabb diszkódal az ex-Moloko-dívától
Az ezredfordulón sikereket arató sheffieldi All Seeing I elektronikus tánczenei kollektíva mindhárom hajdani producertagja újra reflektorfényben: Dean Honer az International Teachers Of Pop együttest vezeti, Jason Buckle a Pulp-frontember Jarvis Cocker új számainak fő segédje (Must I Evolve, House Music All Night Long), a DJ Parrot és Crooked Man álnevek mögött megbúvó Richard Barratt pedig Róisín Murphy mellett dolgozik: az ex-Moloko-díva tavalyi Incapable és Narcissus kislemezdalai után az új Murphy’s Law-t is közösen írták és rögzítették.
„Ami elromolhat, az el is romlik” – mondja Murphy törvénye, de Róisín Murphy alábbi törvényértelmezése arra utal, hogy ha egy fájdalmas szakításból lábadozva elindul éjszaka a városba bulizni, mindig összefut a hajdani szerelmével. Az új diszkódal, melybe hangmérnökként a fentebb említett egykori All Seeing I-főnök Dean Honer is besegített, két eltérő hosszúságú verzióban is hallható.
I feel my story’s still untold
But I’ll make my own happy ending
I guess I’d rather be alone
Than make and do amending
I feel maybe I’ve outgrown this old town
I see you almost every day
And every time I turn around
Our love is stuck on replay
Every since we broke up
I’ve been afraid to go out
But I won’t be a prisoner
Locked up in this house
I feel my story’s still untold
But I’ll make my own happy ending
But I’d rather be alone
Than make and do amending
Have I outgrown this old town?
I see you almost every day
And every time I turn around
Our love is stuck on replay
It’s Murphy’s law, I’m gonna meet you tonight
Just one match could relight the flame
And just when everything is goin’ alright
All my hard work goes down the drain
And Murphy’s law, I’m gonna meet you tonight
Just one match could relight the flame
And just when everything is goin’ alright
Murphy’s law gonna strike again
It’s gonna strike again
It’s gonna strike again
What have I got to lose?
I’m so tired of complaining
Pretty soon I’ll be breaking loose
And the feeling will be changing
Now I’m back on my feet
Ain’t looking over my shoulder
But if I put a foot wrong
Yeah, I’ll be goin’ away
When we talk, it gets around
There’s other people’s feelings
To think about, not just you and me
The small town reality
It’s Murphy’s law, I’m gonna meet you tonight
Just one match could relight the flame
And just when everything is goin’ alright
All my hard work goes down the drain
And Murphy’s law, I’m gonna meet you tonight
Just one match could relight the flame
And just when everything is goin’ alright
Murphy’s law gonna strike again
It’s gonna strike again
It’s gonna strike again
It’s Murphy’s law, I’m gonna meet you tonight
Just one match could relight the flame
And just when everything is goin’ alright
All my hard work goes down the drain
And Murphy’s law, I’m gonna meet you tonight
Just one match could relight the flame
And just when everything is goin’ alright
Murphy’s law gonna strike again
All my hard work keeps on goin’ down the drain
All my hard work keeps on goin’ down the drain
Murphy’s law
Murphy’s law
(Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on) Murphy’s law
(Keep on, keep on)
(Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on) Murphy’s law
(Keep on, keep on)
